    Liberalise lease laws

    News, Postbag, Published on 29/01/2016

    » An argument often heard in Thailand is that to extend leases or grant ownership rights to foreigners would betray sensitivity to the history of colonisation in Southeast Asia. But Thailand has not been subject to colonisation and is seldom seen to be overly sensitive to its neighbours' problems or transgressions, unless they directly impact the kingdom.

We consult on gardening, food, furnishings, domestic layout etc. [/quote:2r7vj52t] I know you shutter your windows and bar your door to be 'safe' in the village. Might be time to step up your security, to handle the inevitable fall-out from your 'simple philosophies'. You are true a danger to yourself and well worth the watching by other visitors to learn how NOT to handle life with a Thai. I notice you have posted on this site which banks you use, how much money you have in some accounts, how many accounts, what they are for, when you come to town and myriad other details. This site and its access points are not sufficiently encrypted to protect your account at BP and thus provide an easy path to your online ID and banking transactions. Time to start smelling the coffee instead of just boasting how expensive it was to impress the 'villagers'....
